Using Filled Shapes
This section illustrates how to use filled shape functions. The example uses the main window procedure from an application that enables the user to draw ellipses, rectangles, and rectangles with rounded corners.
The user draws a filled shape by selecting a particular shape from the menu, positioning the cursor at the upper-left corner of the shape (or the shape's bounding rectangle in the case of an ellipse), and then dragging the mouse until the desired dimensions are obtained.
The following illustration shows three filled shapes drawn using the sample code in this section.
To enable the user to draw filled shapes, include the following popup menu in your application.
POPUP "Filled &Shapes"
{
MENUITEM "&Ellipse", IDM_ELLIPSE
MENUITEM "&Rectangle", IDM_RECTANGLE
MENUITEM "R&oundRect", IDM_ROUNDRECT
}
The menu item values in the menu template are constants that you must define as follows in your application's header file.
#define IDM_ELLIPSE 1100
#define IDM_RECTANGLE 1200
#define IDM_ROUNDRECT 1300
Finally, include the following window procedure in your application.
BOOL CALLBACK MainWndProc(HWND hwnd, UINT uMsg, WPARAM wParam,
LPARAM lParam)
{
HDC hdc; // handle to device context (DC)
PAINTSTRUCT ps; // paint data for Begin/EndPaint

POINT ptClientLR; // client area lower right corner
static HDC hdcCompat; // handle to DC for bitmap
static POINT pt; // x- and y-coordinates of cursor
static RECT rcTarget; // rect to receive filled shape
static RECT rcClient; // client area rectangle
static BOOL fSizeEllipse; // TRUE if ellipse is sized
static BOOL fDrawEllipse; // TRUE if ellipse is drawn
